Our History

Hitchhiker RV Club began as a simple idea. Founders John and Linda Carlson, avid RV travelers with over a decade of road-tripping experience, wanted to create a space where like-minded travelers could come together. Their journey started in 2008 with a modest blog that shared RV tips, campground reviews, and stories from the road. Before long, the blog grew into a fully-fledged community.

Today, Hitchhiker RV Club is a go-to source for RV enthusiasts across America, with thousands of members sharing their journeys, offering advice, and forming lifelong friendships. Our passion for travel, adventure, and the RV lifestyle is at the heart of everything we do, and we’re grateful to have built a community that embodies the spirit of the open road.
